Although our problems are not over yet, not in any way, I have seen a difference in how my husband has spoken to me. Our situation is very bad. We met online over 11 years ago, and I was from South Africa. He is from the US. We IM'ed for nearly a year and met and got married in 2002. We have been married for 10 years now, and have two little boys who need us. ### was unemployed for nearly 3 years and has only recently got a job. We have been living with friends and family for over 20 months and got into trouble through legal and medical problems stemming from our 18 month old's frenulum that needed to be trimmed and was diagnosed late when he was 6 weeks old. He had a feeding tube in the nose for over 6 weeks and that was a real nightmare. But this is even worse. I just couldn't handle the stress of living where my husband is living now (his adoptive aunt), as it was just too stressful. I wanted to go to my sister-in-law (where I am currently living) but my husband did not want me to go. There was also too little space to accommodate my children and I, but my sister-in-law says that if she had known how bad my stress was, she would have let me come here with them. I had too many stresses in my life, and ended up going to a shelter for women. When my husband heard that, he got a summons against me, and I was served, and my children were taken from me. They are currently with my husband, and there is a temporary restraining order against me. My husband and I are trying to get reconciled but he thinks it will take some time. He at least spoke to me twice today and he seems slightly more kind and perhaps forgiving. We were both hurt by the incident, and need emotional healing, but we do love each other. Please continue to pray for us, and that he will rededicate his life to God. Thank you for your prayers. It means so much to me.
You are in my prayers... may God bless you. We are going through a similar situation, it seems...
